We  believe  this  to  be  the  best  Iron  ever  offered  to  the  trade,  from 
its  superior  style  and  finish.  Having  a  true  planed  face,  will  do  the 
work  in  half  the  time  of  common  Sad  Iron. 

They  are  packed  in  casks  containing  from  600  to  700  pounds. 
If  packed  in  cases,  there  will  be  an  extra  charge  of  l  of  a  cent  per 
pound.  We  make  the  following  sizes:  No.  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8,  9, 10,  round 
and  sharp  point.

perfectly  secure.  They  are  entirely  cased,  when  the  shutter  is  opened  or  closed, 
so  there  is  no  chance  for  accumulation  of  snow  or  ice  around  the  bolt,  to  prevent 
it  from  easily  being  locked  or  unlocked.

SOAP  DISH. 


This  is  one  of  the  most  useful  articles  ever  invented.  It  can  be  applied  to  a 
wash-bucket  or  tub,  forming  a  receptacle  for  the  soap,  thus  saving  it  from  being 
dissolved  by  the  water.  From  its  very  low  cost  will,  no  doubt,  soon  come  into 
general  use.

Each  revolution  of  the  crank  turns  out  a  Gill;  4  revolutions  one  Pint;  8  revolutions  one  Quart;  16 
revolutions  Half  a  Gallon,  and  32  revolutions  one  Gallon,  as  is  indicated  by  a  revolution  of  the  hand 
on  the  face  of  the  dial. 

DIRECTIONS. 


First — Set  the  Register  Hand  on  the  face  of  the  Dial  at  the  mark  opposite  the  Star  *.  This  can  be 
done  by  moving  it  by  hand,  either  right  or  left. 

Second — Open  the  Nozzle  Gate,  then  turn  the  Crank  until  the  Register  Hand  indicates  the  desired 
quantity,  always  commencing  with  the  handle  of  the  Crank  down. 

P.  S. — There  is  a  hook  which  is  to  be  fastened  to  LUG  on  back  part  of  Faucet,  and  driven  into  the 
Cask,  extending  left,  which  is  to  prevent  the  Faucet  from  turning  when  drawing  heavy  liquid.  The 
LUG  is  also  for  the  purpose  of  screwing  the  Faucet  into  the  Cask,  by  use  of  a  bar  of  iron  as  lever.  The 
suction  of  the  Faucet  is  of  such  strength  as  to  have  a  tendency  to  draw  chips  and  other  dirt  into  the 
chamber;  to  avoid  this,  a  STRAINER  has  been  added,  which  will  effectually  prevent  such  difficulties.

BEADING  APPLE  PARER. 

Patented  March  2nd,  1369,  May  17th,  1870,  June  7th,  1870. 


The  above  cut  represents  our  new  Apple  Parer,  for  which  we  claim  the 
following  advantages  over  all  other  parers  in  the  market. 

1st.  It  takes  oft'  a  thinner  paring,  and  is  more  uniform  and  regular  in  .<«  . 

its  movements.  I  ||/  J’ 

2nd.  The  paring  is  carried  over  the.  shield  plate,  and  clear  of  the 
machinery. 

3rd.  As  soon  as  the  apple  has  been  nicely  pared,  the  arm  (as  shown  by 
the  above  cut)  pushes  the  apple  off'  the  prongs  of  the  fork  into  the  receptacle  below. 

This  machine  has  been  thoroughly  tested  during  the  season  of  1870,  and  has  given  everywhere 
universal  satisfaction,  and  in  all  cases  has  been  given  the  preference  over  all  other  Apple  Parers.

PATENT  HAY  FORK  AND  HOISTING  PULLEY. 

Diameter  of  Wheel  6  Inches. 


The  above  cut  represents  a  hay  fork  and  general  hoisting  pulley, 
for  which  we  have  applied  for  a  patent,  anil  which  we  believe  the  best 
constructed,  for  the  purpose,  of  any  in  the  market. 

It  is  very  wide  on  the  face,  and  has  a  deep  groove,  so  it  is  not 
possible  for  the  rope  to  slip  off  the  wheel  when  in  use. 

As  we  make  hut  a  limited  quantity  each  season,  parties  will  please 
send  in  their  orders  as  promptly  as  possible..

The  above  cut  shows  a  sectional  view  of  the  working  part  of  the  Caster,  dis¬ 
playing  the  Oil  receptacle,  with  Wrought  Iron  washer,  resting  on  the  bottom  ; 
also,  the  top  or  socket,  which  supports  the  weight. 

A  very  small  quantity  of  oil  (being  retained  in  the  cup,)  will  constantly 
lubricate  the  motive  part  of  the  Caster;  make  it  run  easy,  without  any  wear — 
this,  (in  fact,)  is  the  best  and  most  economical  Truck  Caster  for  use,  in  the  market.
